Life's easier and you screw up less when you realize this, and think intentionally and take actions accordingly so the autopilot can't screw things up. by 12jonboy12
ADHD isn't a problem for, like farm hands working before tractors and such took over. But now that our brains are the only really monetizable asset, the added strain is preventing traditional coping mechanisms from working.

It must be nice to have executive functions.
But telling someone with a broken arm to lift weights won't help them.

ADHD is a physical problem that can be seen in MRI's: Hardware issue, not software. While symptoms can be reduced by similar tactics, "normality" is impossible.
I've tried similar things with little results in the past, but I can try again. I'll see how long I can keep it going.
